Nigerian duo Kelechi Iheanacho and Wilfred Ndidi could both leave Leicester City this summer as new Foxes manager, Enzo Maresca, says the club is open to selling players desperate to leave the King Power stadium.

Maresca while speaking on the futures of his current players, including the likes of Jamie Vardy, Harvey Barnes and the Nigerians at the club, said, “It is difficult, when the market is open, anything can happen.

“At the moment, seven players had their contracts expired, James Maddison left, and some more players can leave. But at the same time, players can leave, so we can bring in more players.

“The market is open, anything can happen. We can bring in players and we can sell them too. The market is long. There are many weeks so we’ll see.”

Iheanacho and Ndidi have been linked with exits from the club this summer, after Leicester City were relegated to the Championship, seven years after they lifted the Premier League.

While Iheanacho has been linked with AS Roma, Inter Milan, Besiktas and Aston Villa, Ndidi has been attracting interests from Saudi Arabian clubs Al Hilal and Al Ittihad, as well as Scottish giants Glasgow Rangers and Celtic.
